Trenton Allen Jones,55, of Bloomington, passed away peacefully on June 20th at his home.

Trent was born on June 28th, 1968 to Stephen Jones and Linda O'Dell Jones McCracken. He was a 1986 graduate of Bedford North Lawrence High School, where he also played football. He then went on to attend Indiana University and graduated in 1990. While at IU, he was a member of the Sigma Nu fraternity. He followed in the footsteps of his grandfather Edward W Jones, who also attended IU and was a Sigma Nu and was fraternity Brothers with Herman Wells.

After graduation, Trent became a successful businessman as an appraiser and commercial real estate investor in both Bedford and Bloomington. In Bedford, he established his own business (T Jones Appraisals), and he himself restored the old Forty's Fish building on J Street to house his business. As his business grew, he expanded to Bloomington to include commercial real estate. Again, he used his restorative talents to renovate what would become his Bloomington office at 408 S. Walnut. Trent entered politics with his elected position as a Monroe County Councilman. He also had made charitable contributions to the Miracle Ride for Riley Kids, the BBOR Toy Drive for Middle Way House, and People and Animal Learning Services.

In Trent's spare time, he enjoyed family holiday gatherings, vintage camping with friends, cars, and motorcycles. He attended City Church of Bloomington. He loved to travel, visit state parks, attend car shows, and explore historical hotels and landmarks. His adventurous spirit and quick, dry wit endeared him to many with whom he interacted during his lifetime.
